I take it back...

Everything I said about loving this child and his "stage" in life is NOT true anymore.

I left this spaghetti face alone for 30 seconds...
1/2 of a minute, I swear!

and by the look on his face, I'm sure he KNEW that dry erase markers are just as hard to get off the wall as permanent.

Today I am really grateful for crayon remover, mr. clean magic erasers and Sherwin Williams (who keeps record of what builders use which paints..) Luckily, we were able to buy the exact color of white... for whenever mr. Destructo decides to create another masterpiece.

I'm so sorry! We had to paint EVERY single room in our house before we moved because our little artist liked walls the best for her canvas too!

"we only color on paper" this is what i have probably told my kids 200 times. For some reason, it is way funnier when someone else's kid does it!

He is so cute it must be hard to get mad at him! I just finshed cleaning my carpet where Wyatt decided to color with a blue dry erase marker! Wyatt and Zack probably planned this while they ate ice cream together at the dairy!

I feel your pain. And like you I am so grateful for magic eraser. Wow! Lucky you.

He can't help himself. He loves to color and draw. You have a true artist on your hands!

At least it was the wall, you can't really paint over the carpet... your CREAM carpet. Never again.
